Summary "The Golden Hope: A Story of the Time of King Alexander the Great" by Robert H. Fuller is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The book is set in the era of King Alexander the Great and focuses on the vibrant landscape of ancient Greece, exploring themes of friendship, ambition, and the uncertainties of war. The narrative begins to revolve around three friends—Clearchus, Chares, and Leonidas—as they navigate personal aspirations and external political challenges during a time of impending conflict. The opening of this work introduces us to the characters and the setting, with a lively depiction of Athens awakening to the morning sun. Clearchus, excited about the upcoming marriage to Artemisia, is joined by his friends after a night ride from Thebes. Their conversations reveal the tensions in Greece as they discuss matters of state, potential war with Macedonia, and Clearchus’ growing affection. However, the mood shifts dramatically when word arrives that Artemisia has been abducted, prompting the friends to embark on a desperate quest to rescue her, igniting themes of loyalty and adventure grounded in the political intrigues of their time.
